Franklin!

I'm fine.

Is nothing.

Is nothing.

Franklin said he'd be here for dinner.

We'll be back before.

Yes, my lady.

Make it special, Gabriel.

Let's find out what pleased we are to see him again.

- Yes, my lady. - Are we?

It was a little monster child.

Hopefully what Europe has improved.

Sure, Miss Rachel.

It was the naughtiest of children, He climbed to the roof and broken windows.

Why has been away?

His father sent him to school in Germany.

Then he went away

like all young men usually they do.

His return is sudden.

How long will you be staying?

Until Miss Rachel's birthday.

When?

You know what curiosity did, true?

This has not been opened in years.

Hey! Do not screw up.

I would not do it.

So we were Mr. Franklin and I before he left.

Also I paid seven shillings and sixpence.

- I doubt if I'll see you again. - Ah!

What do you mean, "ah"?

They have much money, as they say.

For real? Who "they say"?

The gossip of the kitchen you become blind, boy.

What else do they say?

Okay...

Huh?

Who have an eye for the ladies.

Ooh! Really?

I did not say, Mr. Betteredge!

That is repeated.

- Mr. Betteredge ... - What's up?

Good afternoon, sir.

Good afternoon. What I can help?

Actually, we We do something for you, sir.

And what will you do?

We are jugglers, sir.

We wondered if Mrs. of the House

enjoy our entertainment.

The lady is not home at this time.

Oh!

Should not come through this door.

The door sellers It's behind.

Yes sir. Sorry, sir.

Thank you for your patience.

We hope not to have bothered.

No trouble, I assure you.

- Good afternoon sir. - Yes.

- Slowly. - Sorry Mr. Betteredge.

What happens now, Penelope?

Does the food is not enough good for you?

Is Rosanna, Mr. Betteredge.

It has been delayed for dinner and they have sent me to fetch.

I can not do all the work in this house.

Where is?

In the quicksand.

He said he was not feeling well and I needed some fresh air.

Go back to your dinner and stop complaining.

Rosanna.

Why did you come back again and again to this terrible place?

I try not to but I can not.

Sometimes Mr. Betteredge, I think my grave awaits me here.

It is as if spellbound.

I dream of this place night after night.

That will happen because you have an empty stomach.

I did not realize.

My mind is restless at times, that is all.

Are not they wonderful?

It's as if hundreds of souls they were suffocating

all fighting to reach the surface.

Betteredge!

Who is?

- Who? - Who?

My dear old Betteredge!

I owe you six shillings and seven pence?

- Mr. Franklin? - My dear old Betteredge.

Mr. Franklin!

Today it is a little strange, sir.

Good to see you again, Mr. Franklin!

And you too, Betteredge.

No no no. I squeezed half-life and ...

We were expecting, but later.

Yes, but I took the train early.

I wanted to sneak someone.

¿Drain away, sir?

Yes, Betteredge. In recent days

someone has been following me London.

An Indian gentleman.

¿Hindu?

Yes. Why the surprise?

For anything, sir. It is that we had visitors in the house today.

Three of them. Hindus.

Oh my God!

They were jugglers, sir. Only that.

Let's hope so.

I can not help thinking that this gift

has something to do with it.

- What, sir? - A diamond Betteredge.

Uncle Herncastle.

Is the Moonstone?

Why do you have?

He left her in his will as a birthday

of raw Rachel.

Mr. Bruff, lawyer and executor entrusted me give it.

Would not be in place, sir.

His uncle Colonel Sir John Herncastle

the Evil Colonel, as he said,

It was one of the greatest scoundrels existed.

When he returned from India

his family and friends returned to him the back.

Outlaw, you could say, among his own people.

What had he done?

It is said that stole the stone a sacred sanctuary.

Even killing to get it.

His life was threatened in India.

It was believed that The Moonstone I was behind everything.

When he returned to England she found herself excluded from society.

The Moonstone, behind this too.

- You knew him? - I only saw him once.

Two years ago, in the residence lady in London,

Birthday night Miss Rachel.

His face was possessed by the devil.

Sir John!

Do not you let me go, old friend?

Would you tell my sister that I came

to wish my niece A happy birthday?

Milady, Sir John is down.

- It has come to desearle- - Tell him I'm busy.

Make him leave.

Regrets that both she Milady Miss Rachel as they are engaged.

They beg the pardon because they can not see you.

Thank Betteredge.

I remember my niece's birthday.

Listen to this.

I give you my niece Rachel Verinder

diamond known as The Moonstone

To be delivered in the next birthday after my death

and it is known that diamond cedo as a symbol of forgiveness

for the insult caused by my sister

when his servant, following his orders

I closed the door of his house.

There you have it, Betteredge.

What should I do?

Well, sir, as the birthday It is in four weeks

Why do not we keep it secret

and waited to see if something happens?

And the diamond?

Put it in the bank, sir, at once.

Well done, Betteredge!

I will write to Frizinghall immediately.

Yes.

... a portrait in the church, with a face ...

There are so many churches ...

... there is a huge mouth and say ...

that if you lied and you put your hand inside ...

I think I've heard all that nonsense ...

In England we say "Hello."

In case you've forgotten.

I'm sorry.

Hello.

And "thank you."

Thank you.

Now I.

This is something I picked up from Heidelberg.

- I would leave him there. - Mother!

- Its beautiful. - Yes it is.

Just as I remember.

Have I been missed?

- It has done? - No. What makes you think that?

I do not believe you.

Am I being called a liar, Mr. Blake?

May heaven forgive me, Miss Verinder!

I am a gentleman, to the tips of my fingers.

Would I have you missed?

It has done?

I had better things to do with my time.

It is the most charming lady I've seen, Betteredge.

Since I returned to England.

No, I meant how it has grown.

What can I say?

The most charming lady that I've seen.

¿Rosanna?

What are you doing?

Do not tell anyone, please.

- Go away. - Thank you.

What is?

A phoenix.

Oh, yes, of course, now I see it.

- Franklin! - Than?

I think the girl looks so good, as before.

Do not expect anything else from you.

He decided that it can be improved as Mr. Franklin calls

"Decorative painting."

A foreign custom, definitely.

Decorative painting ...

You will find, Samuel, the gentlemen are all

Looking for something to do.

We all carry our loads in life

theirs are how to combat boredom.

They have to pass the time.

And if they choose to do so,

it was humiliating a perfect door

they do, then.

All thoughts, passions and pleasures,

all that stirs this mortal body,

all are but that ambassadors of love,

and feeding the sacred fire.

I think there are... too yellow.

Is getting married, Mr. Betteredge?

Do not be daring.

Sorry, Mr. Betteredge.

It is not our business, They are of them.

Of course, Mr. Betteredge.

If you are getting married ...

- No, in my opinion. - I would have said yes.

For even as trafficking He has quit

because she dislikes the smell.

How do you know that?

Mr. Franklin If not, then who?

That does not matter, boy.

Godfrey Ablewhite is one I think.

A fine gentleman, philanthropist, attorney...

Mr. Franklin has no chance.

- Drusilla! - Aunt Julia!

- Godfrey. - Lady Verinder.

Did you have a horrid journey?

Not at all.

- Drusilla Hello! - My dear Rachel!

- Godfrey. - So beautiful as always.

It will for me, Mr. Jennings if you would be so kind.

I'll be here, doctor.

Good to see you, Betteredge.

You too, Dr. Candy.

Come in, please.

- Dr. Candy! - Lady Verinder.

You are welcome.

Do you remember this girl?

Amazing!

Exquisite.

Do not you think Miss Clack?

Yes, Mr. Ablewhite.

Look, Gabriel.

Light mana as the light of the crescent.

Look inside.

Continues further.

Beyond that heaven itself.

You will not be allowed to keep it.

The Lord bless us.

A mere stone carving.

Not for some, Mr. Ablewhite.

The Indian diamond is sometimes part of religion.

And I know a city and a temple in it

where, if Miss Rachel sostuviera that stone as now

his life would not be five minutes of purchase.

If you travel to India, my dear

I leave you the gift your uncle at home.

Franklin, want to use it tonight.

Would you do something for me?

- Yes. - Catch.

Rachel ...

in celebration of the day of your birth, my dear.

It's beautiful.

Thank you, Godfrey.

You know how happy I am to see you again.

You make me many compliments.

I have not done a compliment in all my life.

Love just telling the truth.

No, Godfrey.

Rachel ... Rachel ...

Please!

I lost all interest in life except you.

Do not say that... but you know that I appreciate ...

Do not ask your love.

I'll settle for your love and your esteem.

We're friends, Godfrey, special friends, but ...

Bless agreeing to be my wife.

- Do not. - I beg.

I have never given any reasons to believe it would.

Would you give me a reason to hope?

Then, my dear, Godfrey ...

Would appreciate your respect and admiration

about love any woman on earth.

I'm afraid I must disappoint you.

But I love you... I need you...

We're friends, Godfrey, nothing more.

Rachel ...

Friends.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I do not remember

that particular incident.

You burned my wrists, You tied me with ropes

and rode me like a horse.

Surely not.

You did, Franklin.

The mere thought makes me tired hurt.

You were the most atrocious tyrant.

Your behavior, my dear, It was not always exemplary.

But I was never so wicked to mount it like a horse.

Take revenge, Miss Rachel and do so now.

Wine, Gabriel.

Mothers Society Apparel Transformation

has been busy lately.

Do not let the needle stop.

Partnerships between public good

I think this Mothers Association

awakens in me a particular fondness.

Do you have enough pants?

An institution really important, Drusilla.

I'm sure Mr. Blake I'd be happy to help

next time I'm in town.

Uh ... well ...

Franklin has much time to think

and decide to occupy time, Rachel.

For now I think we should be happy

that you're back with us.

Thank you Aunt. Have I not behaved like an angel

since I got back?

So I quit, I know that bothers them.

And how I suffer! I hardly sleep at night.

My dear Blake,

You should start using some medicine immediately.

Medicines and other remedies to grope,

is, in my opinion, the same thing.

Are you the groping Chasing the Dream.

Stop what you like, but only medicine It will help you find it.

A blind leading the blind.

First I understand meaning.

Are you making fun my profession, sir?

Not at all. Simply I choose away ...

Mr.

All right...

What the hell...?

Jugglers!

What a lovely surprise!

I would be delighted if they acted for us.

What's going on?

Perhaps it is best that you continue playing, my dear.

The doctor is right, Rachel.

I do not get it. They are only jugglers, by God.

God ... God ... God ...

What's going on?

I know little of these matters, gentlemen.

But I suspect that our visitors non jugglers.

What then?

Brahmins, Mr. Blake. Priests.

¿Priests?

The most senior of the Hindu hierarchy, Betteredge.

Capable of great feats.

Leave your country and hide.

Great insult to their religion.

It means that they have sacrificed caste.

The greatest sacrifice they can do.

This only obey a very serious matter.

I can only assume that the reason

It is the return of The Moonstone to where it belongs.

The Lord protect us.

For them, the breed is everything.

Life ... it's nothing.

If thousands of lives were needed to recover the diamond

would take each.

They have been using it to Rachel.

I would send you guarded to Amsterdam

early morning.

Would cut in half a dozen diamond.

Thus ending his secret identity.

What happens if they return tonight?

If they do not need umbrella.

You sure do not want stay, Drusilla?

No, I arranged with a friend in Frizinghall,

but thanks for the invitation.

Jennings is here, doctor.

Splendid. Let Jennings.

It will get wet, sir. Put a layer.

Not at all. The skin of a doctor It is waterproof.

- How much? - Seven, seventeen .

Three for me.

Where did you put tonight?

In my jewelry box, I think.

No, in my Indian cabinet. What could be more perfect?

But dear, do not have a key.

Good heavens, Mama. This is not a hotel.

You can not leave in unlocked cabinets, Rachel.

I can leave it anywhere.

Why do not I give it to me?

Maybe that's the best.

The diamond mine. I'll take care.

Good evening.

One last drink, Mr. Franklin? It will help you sleep.

Excellent idea Betteredge.

How about something stronger?

It seems as if you were not sleeping.

Very good.

Good for you.

You'll be glad you did in the morning.

I'll bring it to you, sir.

Oh my God! The diamond!

¿Mr. Betteredge?

¿Mr. Betteredge?

Mr. Betteredge, diamond has disappeared!

Detective Sergeant Cuff.

- Mr. - Franklin Blake.

That honor!

If half the stories I heard they were true.

Thanks for coming so quickly.

The local authority seems to have no clue.

Since the diamond disappeared

has achieved alter almost all.

Rachel?

Rachel, please talk to me.

Hindus are the most likely suspects.

We have not found anything that implies.

The night that the stone disappeared

We could search the place where they lived.

All three were in their beds.

As no evidence was discovered forced entry

I suggest that remained in their beds

during the robbery.

Where are these Hindu now, officer?

Custody, Sergeant.

There is no evidence against him.

We thought it best ...

keep them available.

Just in case.

The magistrate locked them by marauders.

He is an old friend of Lady Verinder.

I figured someone service he committed the robbery.

We recorded the accommodation the servants

and interrogate each.

- What did you discover? - Nothing, Sergeant.

Then we interrogate Franklin Blake and Godfrey Ablewhite.

We had a brief interview Lady Verinder.

What about your daughter?

He refused to answer my questions.

- Really? - Yes, Sergeant.

He said "I have not sent for you." "I do not want them here."

"My diamond has disappeared, neither you nor anyone else will find it. "

And after?

I closed the door in his face.

I see.

A strange question, sir.

- Yes it is. - They'll never find, right sir?

Why do you say that?

You are the person who took it.

Very good work.

I detect a bit of influence Rosetti, if I'm not mistaken.

He has discovered, Sgt.

Should arrest him for plagiarism, sir.

This is a pity.

What?

Here, there is a stain.

Who asked you to come?

I came at the request of Mr. Blake.

Having answered your question

I would like to ask you some questions.

There is a stain on the paint your door.

Do you know when it happened or who did it?

Do you think that the suggestion of a young it is useful?

Happy to hear.

Do your duty by yourself

and not allow Mr. Franklin Blake help.

Thank you, Miss. Do you know about the stain?

He has not been well he disappeared from the diamond.

I see there seems to humor, sir.

But as it is a valuable jewel ...

The languages ​​of young

they are a privileged member.

This damn diamond He has turned everything upside down.

I know exactly what you mean, Mr. Betteredge.

We all feel bad now.

Coco tells me that Dr. Candy It took something.

Apparently it got wet much the birthday

and caught a cold.

Your skin is not as waterproof as he thought.

He's in bed with fever and delirium.

Talking nonsense, poor man.

We have certainly seen better times.

What time were the servants here yesterday morning?

At eleven, Sgt.

Mr. Blake, is the wet paint was or dry at that time?

Let me see... Finished paint

around three p.m. Wednesday.

Takes about twelve hours to dry.

That brings us to three o'clock.

At eleven you questioned the servants.

The paint was dried eight hours

when you assumed clothes the servants

they would have spotted the door.

The last time I was here They were about twelve

then to wish Miss Rachel good evening.

- And there was no stain. - No sir.

I care that my clothes did not approach knowing he could be wet.

What was wearing at the time?

This, sir.

Could examine if, by accident, he had touched?

Yes sir.

You will find that I am always careful.

So it seems.

Thank you my darling. You can retire.

Thank you sir.

It's definitely clothes.

So...

At the moment there are three discoveries to do.

If there is an item of clothing in the house with a spot of paint,

who owns and how that person

Can you explain being in the room

between midnight and three o'clock.

If the response is appropriate, You do not have to go far

to find the hand holding the diamond.

Seagrave agent, this trifle yours It has grown in importance

since the investigation began.

I do not dwell more their regular duties in the city.

Let me wish you a good day.

Between.

Sorry to interrupt, Lady Verinder.

You must be the famous Sergeant Cuff. Godfrey Ablewhite.

Mr.

I think it would be better he left.

Excuse me sir. I have applied for permission

to look in closets all in the house.

I presume you have no objection.

Anything to help.

I let my trunk and when finished It will be sent to London.

Thank you sir. I regret disturbing.

There is no discomfort.

My clothes are ready for examination Also, Sgt.

Thank you sir.

Goodbye, my lady.

I am so sorry.

Tell Rachel I'll be thinking in your distress.

Thank you.

- Betteredge. - Mr.

- Sgt. - Mr.

I'll go with him to the station.

Before beginning the search, milady,

would like to see the registration facilities.

I would like to know on the linen of the house.

If any items are missing, we presume is the stain that we seek.

Gabriel, ask bring us Laundry registration.

Milady.

I will seek the key to my daughter myself.

Thank you dear.

You can go, Rosanna.

You have this young long in service?

Why do you ask?

The last time I saw Rosanna Spearman

I was in prison for theft.

Sgt.

I know the unfortunate history Rosanna.

And I know the admirable behavior

my service. I have the highest opinion of her.

I hope she does not suspect.

I do not suspect anybody, Your Honor.

For the moment.

Do you have the keys to your daughter?

My daughter refuses to be examined his things.

I see.

We must abandon the search.

We examined every closet or none.

It does not seem disappointed.

Do not.

Miss Rachel is not usually behave well, I assure you.

I do not get it.

What will we do now?

Why not take a look the roses?

Are you hoping to find a clue there?

No, I like roses ...

The "White Mask" Mr. Betteredge.

An old English rose She is holding her head

along with better and newer.

Bella, my dear.

Yes she likes roses, right?

I do not have much time for something I like.

But when I have a moment to admire something,

many times, Mr. Betteredge, It is for roses.

I need to question the servants.

Rosanna is good, sir, I know.

But it has its ways.

He does his work, never complains,

but do not want much.

Has been acting strange

since the diamond was lost?

Yes sir.

Before, actually.

Since Mr. Franklin again abroad.

Yesterday afternoon, for example,

said their suffering dizziness as always, but ...

... I do not think that was the reason.

Did not notice anything strange?

¿No incident worth worth mentioning?

Yes?

Well, thanks Samuel.

The man in the bakery, sir.

What about him?

He delivered this morning.

He said he had seen Rosanna in the village

yesterday afternoon.

Did?

I said it was impossible

because he stayed in bed.

I think it's a little slow.

Were you in your room yesterday afternoon?

Yes sir.

- All afternoon? - Yes sir.

- It's true? - Yes.

Rosanna, I must tell someone I saw in the village

yesterday afternoon.

That's impossible, sir. I was in bed.

It must have been someone like you.

Yes?

Any discovery, sir?

Do me know if Rosanna out, for whatever reason?

It has already done, sir.

Stumpy Lucy is the only friend what's wrong with it.

I hope not think Rosanna It has something to do with it.

I do not want to hurt his feelings, Mr. Betteredge,

but Rosanna is sly.

I suspect that in the morning after robbery

noticed the stain on the door,

discovered the stain on her nightgown,

He pretended to be sick and ran to town

to buy cloth to make A new one.

Can not be.

I think, nevertheless, Rosanna's participation

It is simply an instrument in the hands of someone else.

Can you give that person a name?

Can you, Mr. Betteredge?

Rosanna left ten minutes ago.

What a shame.

Where is Rosie, Mrs. Yolland?

Up and down, Mr. B.

It was a nap.

Poor Rosanna.

I do not know why the other They are so hard on her.

People can be cruel.

The gossips say that he had to see with diamond.

- Do not. - Yes.

Attempt to clear his name, Mrs. Yolland.

What a good man you are, Mr. Cluff.

To your good health.

The current work Rosanna

It has great prospects, true?

I would advise you to leave him.

God bless his heart, Mr. Cluff, He is on leave.

- Really? - Yes.

You must be mistaken, Mrs. Yolland.

If Rosanna were to leave, I would not have mentioned it to me.

Make no mistake, Mr. B.

I bought an old box of lead and a pair of dog chains

I needed to travel.

We have a lot of this and that

that the sea returns

He said the case would serve him to their collars and cuffs.

And the chains dog?

To tie the box.

"Use string," I said.

"The networks are safer," he said.

As good as gold, but a little strange.

It's enough, Mother.

Lucy, girl.

How are you Lucy?

Boxes, strings, there is something hidden, Mr. Betteredge.

Rosanna has certainly plan in Accion.

The mystery is what the hell He has hidden?

Is not it obvious?

Oh, is not the diamond, Mr. Betteredge.

The whole experience of my life I would not have done any

if Rosanna Spearman had the diamond.

- The nightgown, then. - Possibly.

Why hide it instead to get rid of him forever?

Scared me.

Want to talk to me?

If I dared ...

If you have nothing to say ...

Not support my eyes, true?

You wanted to see me, my lady?

I must say that Miss Verinder it is proposed visit Frizinghall,

to stay with an aunt.

Can I ask when?

Tomorrow morning.

I respectfully insist will convince

to delay his departure for the sake of research.

Since the loss of her jewel, Sergeant,

I could not convince to do anything.

Anyway, I'll try, for the sake of research.

Thank you, milady.

Incidentally, Judge He asked me

how much more you need to stop Hindus.

Oh no. Release them immediately.

It has something to do with Miss Rachel, true?

Are you saying, that simple,

Miss Rachel stole her own diamond?

As simple as that? Yes.

He has been secretly in possession of the stone

from beginning to end.

And Rosanna has made his confidant

because you suspect Rosanna theft.

- The whole case in a nutshell. - For real?

For starters, it does not explain the stain in her nightgown.

Between midnight and three o'clock Thursday

Rosanna slipped into the room Miss Verinder

to discuss where to hide the stone,

and to return to his own room

her gown brushed against the door.

Why steal Miss Rachel their own jewelery?

And if you're so convinced, Why not arrested?

Patience, Mr. Betteredge. Patience.

Why suspected Miss Rachel as if it were a thief

while Hindus are released?

I have nothing else to do

regarding loss Jewel, you.

But I'll tell you one thing ...

if we find the stone, they will.

Try to forgive me, mom.

One word, Miss Verinder.

I can not stop visiting his aunt.

Only I dare say

his departure, as things stand

are an obstacle to recovery of your diamond.

Please, I understand it.

And decide now if part or run it.

- Rachel! Rachel! - Advance!

- Please! - Advance!

There is a time for everything.

And no time to hum.

His young mistress has a partner Travel, Mr. Betteredge,

and his name is ... The Moonstone.

Now that Miss departed Verinder

I suspect that his accomplice soon will follow.

I saw Rosanna leave, with a letter.

For whom?

Renga for Lucy.

I saw the boy stop carnage

asking if he could dispatch it in the village.

- What he did then? - He left, sir.

- Where? - A quicksand.

Faster, boy, faster.

Rosanna! Do not!

Rosanna! Do not! Oh my God!

Rosanna!

Will you accept his pay and leave Here alone?

No, Your Honor.

Not until I know how things stand

and what actions to take.

For starters, Rosanna's untimely death.

I think some anxiety Diamond related

he took her to his own destruction.

I do not know what should be that anxiety but ...

I think there is a person you can tell us.

- You mean my daughter. - Yes.

Simply speaking, Sergeant, you suspect that Miss Verinder

He has deceived us all, diamond hiding

for a proper purpose. It is true?

Very true, my lady.

I must tell you, Sergeant, she is absolutely incapable

supposed to do what he did.

Events, milady, They suggest otherwise.

Miss shown Verinder an incomprehensible resentment

against anyone who tried to help.

This makes me suspect that Miss Verinder

It has debts that, if known, They shall be paid

and I wonder if the diamond

He has been secretly promised to pay them.

Circumstances have cheated.

I also wonder why Miss Verinder deceived us,

into believing it was stolen.

Rosanna was with his criminal record

exactly who would guide us a red herring,

and in the right place Diamond for money.

When Rosanna stole

He was associated with a certain Septimus Luker

a lender known and one of the few in London

he would advance a large sum on such a valuable jewel

without embarrassing questions.

Milady, this is not the case a common robbery.

It is the case of a well-planned fraud.

The owner of the diamond behind him.

What do you propose to do?

I would like to tell Miss Verinder, without warning,

Rosanna's death.

It will be a blow that will shake,

with the hope that their good feelings

make it open to trust us.

Will your lordship agree in this plan of action?

Yes.

So I wish your lordship good afternoon.

Nevertheless...

... Claim the right to examine to my daughter

and you must have two things,

I will carry out the task, shamelessly, as you do

and I will inform you of the results before the last train to London.

¿Mr. Betteredge?

This has come to you.

All right.

My dear Gabriel,

I decided to stay in Frizinghall

and within days, take Rachel to London.

We ask you to report Detective Sergeant Cuff

I've carried out the promise that I have done.

Rachel solemnly declares

who has never spoken a word privately with Rosanna

they found no night the diamond disappeared

and there was no communication of any kind between them

until such time that Miss Verinder He left the house.

I hope this will be the end of it, Gabriel.

Lady Verinder.

It is not the end of it, Mr. Betteredge.

We will have to do more research

before passing months.

If Miss Verinder goes to London

I predict it will not be long to hear of Hindus there.

Meanwhile, sir,

I carry with me a sincere appreciation for you.

With this diamond theft

I doubt that this house is the best place from England. Look at it.

Where will Mr. Franklin?

Tell me where it goes.

The demon.

Where is Franklin Blake?

Lucy? What brings you here?

Where is?

What do you want with Mr. Blake, my dear?

He is a murderer.

He murdered Rosanna.

What makes you say that?

I loved her, Mr. Betteredge. We had plans.

And then he came and ruined.

Like all men ... The Knights...

I'll tell you, Mr. Betteredge,

the day is not far

when the poor are lifted against the rich

and I pray Heaven to begin with.

Where is?

Rosanna left this letter for him.

Mr. Blake is gone.

But ... if you give me the letter, I can send it.

Rosanna asked me to give it to him in person,

and that's what I'll do.

If you want the card, you can return and I will give it.

Between.

Miss Drusilla Clack, Your Honor.

- Aunty. - Drusilla.

I hope forgive the effrontery come uninvited.

Is something wrong, my dear?

I'm afraid so, aunt.

I have been informed of the publication a newspaper article

stating that Mr. Godfrey Ablewhite He has been the victim of a scandal.

I never expose me to read such a crude source.

I was wondering if you could confirm this alarming information.

Unfortunately, I can do it, Drusilla.

Mr. Ablewhite and another gentleman They have been really

victims of a scandal.

Last Friday...

Apparently, Godfrey went to the bank Lombard Street

to cash a check.

Upon leaving, he met a gentleman, A stranger,

Septimus Luker name,

They had a brief conversation and they parted.

Shortly after and tricked

Godfrey was sent to an address

where three Hindus attacked by the back.

Hindus! And in the back!

He was gagged, blindfolded and revised their clothes.

They found nothing, of course and they left him there.

It was obviously the victim some terrible mistake.

Later that day, the other gentleman

who, I am told, is a lender

went through a similar experience.

The only difference this time,

is that they found something worthwhile.

What was?

A receipt for an expensive object,

Mr. Luker had left that day care of their bankers.

- An expensive object, aunt. - Yes, Drusilla.

No word on what was this valuable object.

I see.

From that day Hindus they have disappeared

and the police are so confused like the rest of us.

Poor Mr. Godfrey! An example of courtesy.

This adventure He has made very nervous Rachel.

I was not left alone until he was Godfrey here.

See you at any time.

Oh, Drusilla!

It has not been right since the stone disappeared.

Have you talked with the priest?

I consulted a doctor

suggesting exercises and entertainment.

Entertainment?

Mr. Godfrey Ablewhite, Your Honor.

Lady Verinder.

And my dear Miss Clack.

How are you after that Godfrey ordeal?

I am outraged, Mr. Ablewhite, so it happened.

Thank you both for your understanding, but I do not deserve.

It was a simple case of mistaken identity.

If I could have would not have been published.

Godfrey!

Rachel!

Too bad you have not brought Mr. Luker you.

You two are men most interesting of all London.

Godfrey thinks we're overreacting.

- Have they caught the Hindus? - Do not.

It thinks are the same we visited in the field, right?

- Yes it is. - What do you think?

I was blindfolded so that he could not see their faces.

- And Mr. Luker? - Know less than anyone.

- I never saw him before the bank? - Do not.

Do you know what the object was the receipt of stolen?

Rachel ... questions too.

A valuable gem which he has been entrusted to the bank.

The receipt must have mentioned something about this gem.

I did not mention nothing about it.

Some people say... that valuable gem ...

Rachel!

I'll give salts.

Clack, you're dying to hear the end.

Not me specifically faint to please you!

These people say ... or is it?

The gem of Mr. Luker The Moonstone is.

It is true.

Despite the fact that Mr. Luker has sworn

until this scandal,

I had never heard of The Moonstone.

Shameful. Embarrassing!

Takes this matter very seriously.

I hope, Rachel, take things that oppress people, seriously.

Save your noble feelings for the ladies of the committee, Godfrey.

Repeat what is said of Mr. Luker ...

What do they say about you?

Rachel!

No matter, really.

I want to listen it.

If you insist.

The scandal proclaims ...

that The Moonstone he was committed to Mr. Luker

and I'm the one who insisted.

Do not.

This is my fault.

I can not stand it.

I can not let an innocent man is ruined.

Oh God! I can not stand it.

Everything will be forgotten in a week. No more about it.

I know that Godfrey Ablewhite is innocent.

Take me to the magistrate and swear.

Should not be involved.

His reputation, my dear, is too pure enough to play with her.

My reputation? Why?

I was accused like you.

The best detective in England

I declare that I have stolen my own Diamond and I have committed

to pay my debts.

Mom, I must be crazy if I do not speak now.

I will not fall into disgrace for me.

If you do not take me to the Magistrate,

write a declaration of your innocence and I will sign it.

- But, Rachel, if you do that- - Do what I tell you, Godfrey!

Or I myself will write to newspapers.

This shows everyone, Godfrey.

I will try to repair the damage what have I done to you.

Have no mercy on me, Clack. Do not you see how happy I am?

Dear ladies ...

I'm about to commit a "pious" fraud

which even your high moral rectitude, Miss Clack,

surely excuse.

Any discomfort that may occur ...

it's nothing compared to the importance to preserve a pure name.

There it is.

A harmless pile of ashes.

Our beloved Rachel never know what we did.

Now I must say goodbye.

Milady.

Miss Clack.

Mr. Ablewhite.

- Drusilla ... - Yes aunt?

Before you go, I would like to ask a favor.

Whatever you need, dear aunt.

My lawyer, Mr. Bruff, comes this afternoon.

I wish you were here too

to witness my will.

Your will, aunt?

Yes, Drusilla. I regret to tell you

but I do not feel well.

I have a heart condition which has me ...

... Fatally affected.

Oh God!

My doctor tells me that I will live several more months.

Aunty!

But there is a chance you will not survive not even that long.

I regret more than I can say.

- Goodnight Mr. - Good night, Sam.

Miss Clack is waiting in the lounge.

- Good evening, Miss Clack. - Good evening Mr. Bruff.

It's a beautiful night, praise the Lord.

Yes.

Oh, I must say ...

... You're telling a good story

about his friend Mr. Ablewhite, in my club.

I live quite outside the world, Mr. Bruff.

I have the advantage to belong to a club.

Appearances condemn.

One can say the same Mr. Franklin Blake.

His recent departure to the mainland It was strangely rushed.

Why would interest Mr. Blake steal that jewel?

This is a family matter, not only a disturbance.

I carry their affairs. Miss Clack. It is a deplorable idea.

Then, sir, Should not one consider

the view of the famous Sergeant Cuff?

In his mind, there is no shadow suspicion about anyone

except Miss Rachel Verinder.

If he knew as well as I ...

... I had suspected all, except her.

Thank you.

Hopefully it gather dust in my office for many years.

Lady Verinder.

Miss Clack.

Thanks Mr. Bruff.

You do not want to think you abandoned, Drusilla.

Try to give you your own legacy my own hand.

My dear aunt.

If you want to pay attention this precious book ...

"The Snake in the home" Miss Dorothy Bellows,

you give me what I want.

I checked several chapters for you to read thoroughly.

In particular, "Satan between sofa cushions. "

My doctor tells me to, to read something,

They are light and entertaining books.

Yes Dear.

But you could wake tomorrow morning

with that feeling that something is missing you

and yet this humble volume

could reach compensate.

Music.

- Rachel has not tocado- - I'll tell you to stop immediately.

No no no no.

I love to hear her play.

It's not beautiful?

Would you please open the window?

Of course, aunt!

Is unusually warm tonight.

Yes.

There it is. Is not that better?

Aunty?

Aunty!

I have often seen the house in this light.

It's very nice, is it, Mr. Bruff?

It is a beautiful house in any light, Miss Verinder.

I hope to live here someday But for now...

Until we decide what to do

my wife and I will be honored

to receive in our house in Hampstead.

Thank you, Mr. Bruff.

Betteredge.

Betteredge.

For the love of God! I have had a thunderbolt!

Mr. Franklin a few meters!

It is even greater miracle that me back my seven shillings and sixpence.

Good to see you, Betteredge.

I returned to England as soon as I knew the death of my father.

What brings you here?

What brought me here before?

The Moonstone, Mr. Franklin. What is it now?

Moonstone again.

Leave her alone, for God's sake, and leave her alone.

I'm afraid that's impossible, my old friend.

I still love Rachel.

It breaks my heart that still seem to hate me.

I tried to communicate with her in London

but absolutely refuses to see me.

Moonstone was behind it a year ago.

And I know he's back now.

Betteredge, can you help me?

I think he has a letter for me.

Can you repeat that?

You - have - a letter - to give me.

Is not true?

My poor little darling.

My dear lost.

What he heard in his voice ...

or saw his face?

When you see a poor girl service ...

Do not you feel remorse?

Because I should?

Lévesela.

Never before had seen.

May God forgive me if I ever see.

Open it, Mr. Franklin.

I've been waiting a year to hear this.

Lord, if you want to know the meaning my behavior toward you

do what the attached document.

That's one answer.

FRANKLIN BLAKE

I stole the stone.

Read it, sir.

Does justice to his memory.

Sir, I must tell you something.

A confession that means more suffering

to bump into a few words.

This confession can be done in two words.

I love.

I loved him.

Take some of this.

Do you remember the day of your arrival?

came to woo a lover in a dream.

You were the most adorable person I had seen.

Suddenly I saw the happy life I never allowed myself

him instantly.

You never realized I was there.

If only I'd looked at me a little to continue to live

but only had eyes for Miss Rachel.

How I hated her.

You read it.

Morning after robbery

he was ordering his fourth as usual

It was the happiest time of day.

was folding his nightclothes when I saw the paint stain.

The agent had warned us stain on the door

and Penelope had seen the door without any stain.

I had my hands proof

you had been in Miss Rachel's room,

between midnight and three in the morning.

I decided to keep and see what I could use him.

bought cloth in the village, with the excuse to stay in bed,

and sewed an identical nightgown I replaced it in his room.

The idea that you had fallen my level ...

and I had the means to protect Discovery

gave me the opportunity to earn goodwill.

I tried to talk Diamond

to look at me, speak to me ...

but he chose to ignore or we were interrupted.

¿Mr. Betteredge?

I did not surprise him.

The list for next week.

Thanks Mr. Jennings.

This is Mr. Blake. Franklin Blake.

Ezra Jennings.

Nice to meet you.

Franklin Blake.

Yes.

Dr. Candy has spoken of you.

Truly? All right... send my regards.

Yes, sir, I will.

Good day.

- Who? - The assistant of Dr. Candy, sir.

I grieved to learn, incidentally,

the doctor never recovered Disease

who began the night birthday dinner.

A terrible fever that causes false memories

and is not recovered more than it seems.

So is his assistant He does all the work now.

It does not seem like it.

Nobody likes you, sir.

Does not have a friend here.

I ask what is that role?

It is the weekly list of the sick they need a little wine.

Milady always given port or liquor.

Miss Rachel wants to continue custom.

Can I continue, sir?

The Sergeant Cuff was far from knowing all the truth.

guessed right as to sew a new nightgown.

But he failed in that nightgown Spotted was mine.

If you would have liked least, I would have destroyed.

I knew it would be safe

as much as it was her nightgown.

And how to destroy the only right to your confidence and gratitude

which I made me lucky to own.

Their indifference towards me, Mr. Franklin Blake

It was unbearable.

If I lose the next opportunity to talk

and if you sign cruel as always

say goodbye to the world that put me the joy that has been given to other

stood before you, sir

as his true love

and humble servant.

A ray of light emerge from this, sir, I'm sure.

I wish to believe.

Perhaps a word with Mr. Bruff It would not hurt?

Milady always appreciated his advice.

Then his strange behavior It is no longer a mystery.

She thought you he stole the diamond.

How could you think that?

See for thus Mr. Blake.

Evidence brings nightgown an important point.

What is proven is that you It was the one who used it.

And if Rachel suspected only by evidence nightgown

chances are that Rosanna Spearman was the person who showed it.

What an opportunity to create enmity Rachel and to you!

They all claim, You have to break his silence.

Then, Mr. Bruff, the will confront myself.

- You? - Why not?

Well ... fast mode It is sometimes the best.

I know my wife is out tomorrow afternoon.

I could give you a key to enter the garden

and avoid the servants.

Rachel.

Rachel.

Oh, Rachel!

So you walk me and you dare to kiss me!

I'm sorry.

I guess you should expect Behavior

after what you've done!

What have I done?

You make me that question!

Rachel, you must tell me.

I have kept your secret infamy

and have suffered the consequences.

Now you insult me ​​asking you've done!

Why suspect me?

I have to know.

Is it because you showed Rosanna the nightgown?

That's why?

You are crazy?

Rachel, answer my question!

Suspect stole the diamond and I have a right to know why.

¿Suspect you? I saw you take it with my own eyes.

Why did you come here? Why?

To humble yourself and me?

For God's sake, say something.

Say something and leave this room.

You loved me once.

Let me.

I can not explain the contradiction what I'm going to tell you.

I can only tell the truth as you've done.

You saw me take the diamond.

I swear I hear it took for the first time.

Do you love me still?

Drop my hand.

I want you to tell me what happened,

from the moment we said goodbye

Until now when you saw me take it.

- I do not have to. - If you have!

If we look at what happened that night

we can come to understand.

I wish I could help, I wish.

After saying goodbye ... Did you go straight to sleep?

Yes, but I could not sleep. I was thinking about you.

An hour later, I saw a light under the door

and I heard footsteps approaching.

The door opened and ... saw ...

- Than? - To you.

Do I acted weird in some way?

No. You looked like you know they were not supposed to be there.

What did you say when you saw me?

I could not move, could not talk.

- Could he see you? - Are we here it?

What did I do then?

You find the diamond, thought a moment and left.

I was alone in the dark.

And good?

If you had spoken up when you had, if you had explained this ...

I explain?

I'm not even when accused you break my heart.

I protected you even when my own reputation is at stake.

And now you tell me I should explain?

You are blaming an innocent man.

You never had scruples about getting money, Franklin.

You always seemed to have debts but I would have helped.

I would have gotten rid of the diamond for you.

But what did the next morning?

Call the police.

Worked more than anyone to recover the jewel.

The jewel that you yourself had stolen.

If you had confessed me, only me

I would have forgiven.

But everything you did He was pretending innocence

exactly as you do now.

Do not believe a word of what you said.

You stole stone, pawned Septimus Luker

and ran away to the mainland.

And after all that ...

You come here and tell me I've done wrong.

Rachel let me go, it will be better for both.

Why did you come here? Why?

You've accused me unjustly, yes,

or you will not see me anymore.

Franklin ...

Say you forgive me.

The only way forward It is looking to the future, not the past.

All this is a matter of the past.

Within weeks, the time commitment is complete

if we believe the jewel It was committed.

It is the usual mode of payment a loan

there is a chance that the person He insisted that the bailout.

In that case, Mr. Luker himself

Stone should receive bank.

I propose to monitor the bank

to discover who the person to whom Mr. Luker returns the stone.

What do you think?

I think it is worth, but it forces us to wait.

A fortnight or so.

fifteen days seem a lifetime.

Then you have to find something to do.

- Like what? - I do not know.

There must be something, surely.

I think so.

Mr. Jennings, I have been wrongly accused.

My reputation is at stake.

Dr. Candy maybe can help to prove my innocence.

Is there any reason to suppose that knows something important to you?

I'm not sure.

I'm afraid you'll find it sadly changed.

His memory is impaired.

His illness should be more serious what I thought.

It's a miracle he survived.

The doctor is a good man, Mr. Blake.

She took me under his roof when the rest I pursued the company.

I understand about the reputation.

And now nothing can touch me.

You see, Mr. Blake, I'm dying.

My only source of relief is opium.

But the progress of my illness It has forced me

the use of opium abuse him.

I keep surprising my endless nights of horror.

Mr. Jennings ...

perhaps you've heard of The Moonstone

and theft a year ago.

Yes.

I am the thief.

Or so it seems.

Rachel Verinder saw me take it but ...

... I do not remember doing it.

If Dr. Candy has revealed something I can shed light on this

I would be deeply grateful if you could tell me.

I'm afraid I must exercise some discretion.

Mr. Blake, do you ever Opium has taken you?

Do not.

Were you nervous at that time last year?

Yes, as usual, I was sleeping badly.

What was this?

Perhaps I should not mention it, but ... He had stopped smoking.

- And it was suddenly. - So is.

Tell me, do you remember having discussed with the doctor...

about your profession?

Yes, I remember having a brief altercation.

How do you know that?

Because of the fever.

The doctor often delirious.

I think in his delusions, unable to speak coherently

meant that it could not think coherently.

What did he say?

Did you have a concern on Diamond

that particular night?

Yes, I was very preocup-

Will he spoke about his safety before retiring?

Of course-

Remember how you sleep that night?

I slept soundly.

Mr. Jennings, what are you trying to tell me?

Regarding my theory of delirium

I took notes during fever Dr. Candy.

Overnight, mind He was occupied in something between him and you.

This is what I transcribed ...

Mr. Blake, during the conversation, He addressed the issue of medicine.

Confesses to have been sleeping badly

I tell her nerves are not well

and should take medication.

Really wanted to sleep and medicines

Lady were Verinder at my disposal.

"Pour 25 drops of laudanum tonight unbeknownst

and call him tomorrow morning. "

Mr. Blake Well, try a little ¿ medicine today?

You can not sleep without it.

And he said, "It is wrong Doctor ...

... I slept well without it. "

And I say, "It took more a good rest,

a dose of laudanum before going to sleep."

What he says now the art of medicine?

Mr. Blake, I think you He took the diamond being in trance,

induced opium he is given him Dr. Candy.

He was back the next morning and the mystery had been solved.

But I kept sleeping ...

No, no, no, works in two ways.

First as a stimulant and then as a sedative.

Under the influence of stimulant

You have taken the diamond while unconscious,

only after he had been sedated.

How did he do it? Who could-administer laudanum without my noticing?

I fear that Dr. Candy did not mention it.

Mr. Jennings, I think it has proven we are closer to the truth.

The problem now will convince the rest.

I am prepared to do an experiment.

I'll try anything, just tell me what to do.

It will steal the diamond back.

Recreating, best,

circumstances night that the stone was stolen

the latent memories of their actions They may be activated.

We must do everything we can

to place in the same mental state.

Even the rooms should be arranged similarly

for as they were that night a year ago.

And of course...

... You should stop smoking again.

I'll fix you have witnesses present

to testify their innocence, if the experiment works.

My dear...

Miss Rachel.

Miss gifts Verinder They must be kept secret

Mr. Blake, until the experiment is carried out.

I know I should hold my tongue, sir.

Accustomed to being silent about human folly

I am more than ready to keep my lips sealed on this occasion.

Are you satisfied?

Yes, Mr. Bruff.

I will add, however, that I am here under protest.

And only due to the insistence Mr. Blake

I testify his ridiculous experiment.

You certainly want to try Mr. Blake's innocence.

If Mr. or Miss Blake suffer Verinder any discomfort

what do you personally responsible.

That will not happen.

If anything could cause reconciliation

Miss Verinder is ready to forgive Mr. Blake

to be checked deception Dr. Candy.

The experiment also reveal us

where he hid the diamond after I take the cabinet.

It's in the bank in London!

You think so, but no evidence to prove it.

I would suggest...

at least, it is possible,

never leave the diamond this house.

Nonsense, Mr. Jennings! Silly stuff!

What are you doing now? He is okay?

It's in your bed.

Did you about me? Do not.

Because I would do...

Oh, Mr. Jennings, I love it.

I've always done.

When this is over and he knows That I am here

Do you think, maybe ...

I think you just have to tell him

so just tell me.

Would you let me?

Are you give on that side?

This will be the Moonstone.

What would the same place than last year?

Stay in your room and making noise.

Mr. Bruff, I must ask you I accompany

Room Mr. Blake

and see me administer the laudanum.

I have no alternative.

Now, lie down and rest.

I wish I had not taken the bank.

He was safe in the bank.

You must hide in the house.

The cabinet door is not locked.

Anyone could take it.

I can not sleep with this on my mind.

I apologize Mr. Jennings for doubting you.

He has made Franklin Blake an invaluable service.

It has proven its case.

He hoped to discover what he did with the diamond.

We opposing theories about it

and wanted to try mine.

In recent days

I put surveillance on Mr. Luker in the bank.

I will go to London early in the morning

and I think necessary to bring Mr. Blake me.

Do you have any objection?

No, no.

Thank you.

If it were me you would do the same.

- Mr... - Ah! Gooseberry, my messenger.

Best London Eye.

Luker.

We'll stay here.

There, sir.

If you give the diamond tosomeone

it will here.

Yes I have seen.

Now, Gooseberry ...

Where the hell ...?

Detective "Fever".

This is how Betteredge calls.

This is torture.

Between.

- And good? - Not much, I'm afraid, sir.

Luker went to his house, he sent his guards

and it's the last thing I know about him.

It must be rid of the diamond.

Dare not keep at home.

What about our man in gray?

A Eastcheap Ironmonger. No connection.

Finally, Gooseberry! Where the hell you been?

Good evening gentlemen.

I was here dead wrong.

This time would do well.

I was impressed with what he told Mr. Jennings experiment

but I do not agree that you hide the stone.

What do you suppose happened?

I have no idea, sir.

US Niether.

- Mr. Bruff? - I am totally baffled.

I suspected the wrong person last year.

Perhaps suspected wrong person now.

When you know the truth, Mr. Blake,

open the envelope and compare the name the guilty person

with the name I have written inside.

- Mr! - Gooseberry!

He is a sailor, sir.

Luker something happened to the sailor and I followed him.

Where was?

Tower Wharf, sir.

He spoke with a man from a boat.

Do you know the name of the boat?

Rotterdam, sir, sails in the morning.

The sailor was and suddenly There are two types following.

- And the sailor went to the bar. - What types?

They asked for his room and jumped.

- That room? - Issue 10.

Excellent, Gooseberry.

How do the two types look like?

They were Hindus, sir.

- I'm Sergeant Cuff. - And the Princess of Wales.

Room number 10. Now!

Open up!

Is there another way out?

Is the skylight, sir.

Allow me to.

- The sailor! - Dead. Look to the police.

Look, sir!

Mr. Septimus Luker deposit, a small wooden box

containing a gem of great value.

You were right, gooseberry.

The sailor had stone when he left the bank.

Where is he now?

It was a murder!

He took the hair!

And his beard!

The color of your skin!

Mr. Blake, open that envelope I gave him.

Lea wrote in the name.

If you please look at this person in bed...

is the same?

Is the same.

Do you know anything you gardening Mr. Blake?

I know they are roses.

I recommend it soothes the soul.

We need it from time to time.

Godfrey Ablewhite.

Dark areas, Mr. Blake.

Public a great philanthropist,

privately a great womanizer.

Say your home, where his mistress lives

beautiful garden ... gently down the river.

Obviously, a lady with expensive tastes.

And that's why he embezzled Escrow

that was given to manage.

- Fifty thousand pounds. - Fifty thousand!

A tidy sum, eh?

You can understand the panic he must have felt

when he saw the approaching maturity.

That's why he proposed marriage

Miss Verinder on his birthday.

If she had accepted their problems They would have been solved once.

Fortunately, she refused.

But then an extraordinary opportunity came.

Dr. Candy invited Mr. Ablewhite in his joke at his expense.

I needed someone to prepare your drink

and Ablewhite was the obvious choice.

- Why do not you take me? - Oh! Very well sir.

- Good night, Betteredge. - Goodnight Mr.

What began as a joke

suddenly took a more sinister aspect.

Due to financial problems, Ablewhite could not sleep.

will remember your room I was next to him.

And when you started talking

their curiosity ignited.

... I was sure the bank ... in the bank...

I can not sleep with this in my mind ...

I went to the room Miss Verinder

and watched him go.

Upon entering, you must have touched her nightgown fresh paint the door.

not only saw him Ablewhite take the diamond

but also saw Miss Verinder watching from your bed.

He returned to his room.

You turned and saw the door it open, entered.

Take it to the bank, Godfrey.

He'll be safe there, it's not safe here.

I can not take my head ...

And he brought him back to his bed.

The next morning, waited, to see what happened.

It was obvious that you ignored what he had done during the night.

It is also obvious that Miss Verinder, his damaged reputation,

decided not to say anything, in consideration to you.

If I had chosen Ablewhite preserve the diamond

I had done with impunity.

It stood between him and ruin.

Back in London, She led him to Septimus Luker.

How did you?

You see, Mr. Luker, is a story.

And now Mr. Luker knows everything.

What about Hindus?

They entered the room Ablewhite

through the skylight and that was the end.

Where are the Indians now?

They disappeared into the night.

Mr. Betteredge, the postman brought this.

Very good.

It is Dorking.

Really?

That's it, boy.

Yes, Mr. Betteredge.

My dear old friend,

Even retired, in my paradise of roses,

The Moonstone still haunts me.

Publication Reading a few days ago

I found an article written by a famous traveler.

sent it for analysis and I think might interest you,

to you and to Mr. Blake.

"I was recently in town Seringapatam call,

where there is a shrine the God of the Moon.

They had a ceremony whose purpose

was the purification three Brahmins.

After worship the shrine

said goodbye to each other

and left in different ways.

There would never be over.

And never rest,

condemned to wander until his death.

At the service of your God, They forfeited their caste

across the sea and dress.

And so purification.

But they had conducted what they came to do.

had recovered a valuable diamond

known as The Moonstone,

to its rightful place. "
